History of the name
The name EKTA is composed of the first parts of words "screens" and "board". Initially, the company's name was written in Russian as “ЭКТА” and in the company logo the Ukrainian version “EKTA” was used. However, in 2003, the logo was changed and the official name EKTA was approved. Thus only Latin symbols are left in the name of the company.
